About Me
italki teacher since Feb 24, 2023Interest topicMusicReadingWriting
My name is Monika Guzik-Skirzynska, I’m Polish. I lived in Poland for most of my live, but recently I have moved to UK. I’m married with three adult daughters. I have a soft spot for animals - I have three dogs. I have many interests such as music, playing piano and guitar, writing songs and composing. Some of my other hobbies include literature (reading as well as writing) and IT - recently I became a qualified manual tester of software. I have a certificate ISTQB.Me as a Teacher
I’m a Polish language teacher as well as music and art. I graduated from Polish studies at the Jagiellonian University and postgraduate studies in music and fine arts at the University of Rzeszow. I was teaching Polish language for 27 years in Polish school. My work was awarded many times by the headmistress and the mayor of my city. My lessons have won recognition from the inspectors of the Board of Education.My lessons & teaching style
My lessons are tailored to needs and abilities of my students. I believe that „diving into the language” is the best way to learn. I conduct conversations, teach grammar (if anyone needs it) and literature. With me you can learn many variations of Polish language formal, literary, poetic, colloquial and dialects I will teach you to not only speak and understand spoken language but also how to write all forms of written expression. With me, you can even write poems!My teaching material

I have taken several lessons with Monika, and I find her to be an engaging conversational partner. She also knows a lot about literature! If you want to learn how to express yourself more elegantly or explore literary texts in Polish, I highly recommend her!

Talking to Monika is like talking to a friend, she really puts you at ease, no awkward moments. She always comes prepared with material that I inquired about. I'm so happy that I found such a gem!❤🤩

Po dwóch tygodniach uczenia się z Moniką, czuję się jakbym osiągnęła całkowicie nowy poziom języka.
Monika była zawsze przygotowana, Zmotywowana i wiedziała, co jest mi najbardziej potrzebne. Nie potrafię wyrazić tego, jak bardzo wspomagała mnie z moimi planami, które najpierw wyglądały jak prawie niemożliwe. Ale z pomocą Moniki myślę, że moje szansE i możliwości są o wiele lepsze niż były kiedyś.
Monika, chętnie w przyszłości będę sie uczyć dalej z tobą! za każdym razem miałam fajny czas, nawet gdy rzeczy były nowe, wymagające i specjalistyczne! Dziękuję Ci bardzo!

Interactive, informative, and comforting language sessions - this is how I can describe my Polish learning journey with Monika. During our sessions, we have a perfect mix of speaking, grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation, along with discussions about conversational nuances for various work-life situations. Monika's personalized and genuine approach makes each lesson something to look forward to! 🙌 😊
